Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the inaugural leaders' session at the two-day 'Voice of Global South' summit on Thursday, 12 January 2023.

 

The theme of the session was 'Voice of Global South - for Human-Centric Development'. The virtual summit is hosted by India, in which more than 120 nations are participating, and which will be held until 13 January.

 

Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra had told the media last week that the theme of the summit would be 'Unity of Voice and Unity of Purpose'. He had also informed that two lead sessions would be hosted by the Prime Minister.

 

The conference, Kwatra said, envisions bringing together nations of the global south and to provide them a platform for sharing their views. The conference is inspired by India's philosophy of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam' (The world is one family), the Foreign Secretary had said.

 

India's ongoing presidency of the G20 provides a special and strong opportunity to those countries that are not part of the G20 process to share their ideas and expectations from the G20 through this conference, an official statement said.
